A few from today at Conowingo. Still have a long way to learn the AF of the A7RIV.

Thank you Robert. One thing I learned from yesterday's shooting at Conowingo is how valuable the 60MP of the A7RIV is, yes, the AF is not at the A9 level (I have never shot one), but in the situation at Conowingo yesterday, most of the time 600mm +1.4 TC is still far from enough, 60MP gives me a lot of room to crop.

For some reason I couldn't set the SS at 1/2500, it jumped from 1/2000 to 1/3000, nothing in between.

It wasn't too cold yesterday but very windy. I was there for only 3.5 hours in the morning. When you come up to Conowingo, shoot me an email. I may join you if timing works out.

Nice shots.
Check if your exposure is set to 1/2 stop increments instead of 1/3 stops....don't ask me where that is in the menu though

Thank you, Geoff and Mitesh! Our in house Conowingo guru Mukesh was there too, he was berating people who were not shooting with Sony.

Just kidding.

Trying out the A9+200-600+2.0x combo in the back yard for the first time … boy, the AF and IQ definitely take a hit with the 2.0x … and I'm finding I have obviously been spoiled by the added reach of the A7 bodies.

First shoot with the 1.4X. Didn't seem to affect AF performance at all. Here are a couple of Arizona Eagles

Yeah, 1.4 barely has any affect. I found a lot more variability in the 2x shots and found stopping down to f/14 or f/16 helped considerably.

We have to remember that up until FW 5.0, the A9 didn't even support f/13 PDAF. So it is probably still a little bit "beta"
